[speedoo]

[Kire]

1. a television, A Television.

MY KINGDOM FOR A TELEVISION!

[koopie57]

3. "a 2nd television"

a 2nd television -- one that is not is the same room where my son and his girlfriend are playing kissy face!!! I don't have a kingdom, but how about a can of spaghettios?

[dogtag]

27. Unlike Tucker, Jon Stewart cares about

America, this election, us and he's sick of people who shill for a living, IMO.

[BlueEyedSon]

35. TC: "You're much funnier on your show."

JS: "You're as big a DICK on your show."

[henslee]

2. Ha! Tucker just said owing in fart instead of owing in part.

[Lavender Brown]

6. He did not!

Did he? Lol.

[kayleybeth]

30. He did!

I heard it too.

[Cush]

4. on now

[BlueEyedSon]

5. Kick !!!

now now now

[Cush]

7. Stewart is going after them

[SangamonTaylor]

8. to tucker: how old are you? reply: 35; stewart: and you wear a bowtie

[henslee]

18. Tucker running for cover. This is AMAZING. wOW.!! Never seen

Stewart so serious.

[dogtag]

9. Jon accused them of doing "partisan hackery." WOW.

[al bupp]

10. Best Thing on CNN, EVER!! /eom

[SangamonTaylor]

11. tucker: i thought you were going to be funny

stewart: no, i'm not going to be your monkey.

[fugop]

22. Holy crap

Will Jon be allowed back after the break? Dayum, he is ripping Tucker to shreds and Tucker just REFUSES to let him speak. He's reverting to the old Repub tactic: ridicule the opposition. God forbid they let Stewart speak and address his issues.

And man, the whole thing with Tucker asking Jon why he didn't rip Kerry up is unbelievable. As Jon said, that's NOT HIS JOB! he follows PUPPETS, and these guys are on a news channel.

I mean. Wow. Jon Stewart is incredible. As has often happened in history, it's the "comedians" who are putting the "news people" to shame.

[dogtag]

12. Jon is being serious and they

just keep clowning, escpecially Tucker. Paul got quiet.

[spotbird]

13. Wow, his hands are shaking.

He is calling them on their absence of depth. That they don't actually contribute or further the debate.

Tucker responds by attacking Comedy Central.

[Mojambo]

14. Tucker lecturing Jon Stewart on lecturing...

Geez what a whiney little twit.

[Toby109]

15. Holy Shit!

Stewart is crushing them. Twice calling them partisan hacks. I can't believe this. Long overdue.

[kentuck]

16. Oh man ! This is great !

Tucker was nbot ready for the truth! :)

[dogtag]

17. Jon spoke at a luncheon in NYC yesterday

and said he was disgusted with the shows on cable, etc. He came out and said that he's voting for Kerry, btw.

[discopants]

19. Is there a pedestal high enough for Jon?

He was unbelievable!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[BlueEyedSon]

20. "You want me to hold politicians' feet to the fire?"

"The show before me is puppets making crank phone calls."

Go get 'em Jon!!!!

[qanda]

21. This is unbelievable

Jon Stewart was destroying them. I wonder if he'll still be there after the commercial break.

[IChing]

23. I would'nt ask you to dinner

Carlson not as smart as Stewart, bow tie, Carlson can't answer and just shouts. Jon killing him and the audience loves it.

[Bluebear]

24. Tucker: "You are Kerry's buttboy"....more gay references from the right

they're obsessed.

[Bombtrack]

25. This is something that should make the news. but probably won't

because it's ABOUT the news.

[SeekingTruth]

26. Did Carlson call Stewart Kerry's "Butt boy"?...

Not once, but twice?

[SeekingTruth]

31. Did Steward just say Carlson is...

a bigger dick on his show?

[jean]

41. three times I think

[spotbird]

48. Steward replied that he is so far up Kerry's

butt he can tell what he ate two weeks ago.

Tucker wasn't ready for that.

[kayleybeth]

28. This is really something!

Stewart took both of them totally by surprise. He is as serious as a heart attack and they don't quite know how to react. Peewee is being especially obnoxious.

[MissB]

29. Man. Jon is not looking for laughs today

Which is why I'm lovin' him even more!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[dogtag]

32. Yikes! Did Begala just call Jon a dick???

Help me out...who said it?

[BlueEyedSon]

39. No that was JS calling out bowtie-boy

[dogtag]

42. Thank you, whew!

[henslee]

33. Stewart to Tucker-Youre as big a dick on your show as you are on any show.

[Bombtrack]

37. wow

this is incredible

[henslee]

56. That was big. Stewart just reached people that don't usually see him

at the 11:00 slot. He was so straight and sincere. Would not take the bait to comment on the O'Reilly scandal. Being the whores that they are, Begala and Tucker were well behaved, sucked up bigtime and kissed the pope of late night's ring. TV is really about power.

[IChing]

34. Dick? or Dick head

Dickhead tucker lol what an ass sorry dickhead.

[beaver tamer]

36. Stewart just called tucker..

a bigger Dick in person than on TV. haha

[dogtag]

38. Crap, Crossfire only airs once a day, right? No repeat.

[jean]

46. don't know - but we'll get the transcript for sure

[nostalgicaboutmyfutr]

40. PLEASE TELL ME this is being recorded!!!! eom

[nonconformist]

43. Damn! I just saw this and turned it on just in time

to see them thanking Jon Stewart and signing off. :(

[rndmprsn]

44. he called tucker a dick!!!!

HAHAHA...go john!

[Glenda]

45. "you're as big a dick on your show as you are on any show"

Jon said to Tucker. I loved it!!

G

[Mr_Spock]

64. Yep, Tucker is a dick-head alright!!

"How old are you" "35" "and you are still wearing a bowtie?" Audience roars with laughter!

[dogtag]

47. The boys, to their horror, just learned that comedians

are sometimes real people, human beings who care about what happens to their country. What a concept!!!

[hlthe2b]

49. Did they cut the interview short? What did B&T say afterwards?

[spotbird]

50. To be funny one has to be smart.

Which is why Tucker never gets a laugh.

[dogtag]

52. I wish we could see what happened after the show.

The bow tie twit is probably still sitting in his chair getting oxygen from a staffer. Have they ever been more shocked? I doubt it.

[slinkerwink]

51. did ANYONE get a vid cap of that?

[TheFarseer]

53. The finest performance on a cable news show ever!

He managed to be funny and still serious. He really called them out, make no mistake about that. I was really not expecting that. JS is completely right, "this show is about serious debate if Pro Wrestling is about atheletic competition."

[treading_water]

54. He begged them to do their jobs.

Jon Stewart is the MAN. He simply oozed sincerity when he begged them to do their jobs.

[spooky3]

55. Buy Jon Stewart's book to show your support for what he said

http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/tg/detail/-/0446532681/qid=1097874648/sr=8-1/ref=pd_csp_1/104-1968494-5664761?v=glance&s=books&n=507846

[treading_water]

59. Great suggestion!

Done!

[Bongo Prophet]

57. Jon is a mensch. Tucker, a dick.

This is going to get secondary airplay.

HooHAH.

[mtnester]

58. No way they replay this at 11:00...or else it will be sanitized

Listen, I don't know Jon Stewart from Adam except for watching him on TV. However, I do know PEOPLE and I do know BODY LANGUAGE.

It is RARE to see someone as angry as Jon Stewart just was and not have them get up and rip someone's thoat out. I think Begala got the hint as he shifted over and shut up. Tucker...no clue. You could almost smell the anger through the TV.

I am writing a serious letter to Jon Stewart, thanking him for his convictions, his concerns, and his restraint.

[sangh0]

60. Did JS say ANYTHING about LESBIANS???

.

[Jasper 91]

61. Randi Rhodes is playing it now .

:bounce:

[ciaobox]

62. "Your as big a DICK on your show as you are on ANY show!"

I LOVE YOU JOHN STEWART!

[0rganism]

63. I have got to see this replay, but Crossfire isn't on again today?

Bizarre. Does anyone have a link to an archive of the show?
